This book details the lives of the single oldest civilisation on Earth, the Efe Pygmies of the Ituri forest, as shown by mitochondrial dNA studies in 2004
This sentinel piece of literature should not be trivialised by a Wikipedia bot. Mbabane ( talk) 14:23, 11 July 2008 (UTC)Mbabane
It is noted that AnmaFinotera singlehandedly has 1) requested discussion for deletion 2) placed tags for insufficient references 3) questioned notability 4) requested protection from changes to the article to prevent content updates. These tags are suspected of having an undisclosed personal motivation (see discussion below). Nutsheller ( talk) 18:11, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
The notability tag was removed. It is clearly stated in the article that the book is an ethnological description of the oldest surviving society. That is not disputed. That is extremely notable. Within the article are links to other Wikipedia articles that verify this. Plannedobesity ( talk) 15:02, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
Your actions to prevent the addition to Wikipedia and negate references have the appearance of abuse. Nutsheller ( talk) 17:09, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
An additional criteria for Wikipedia notability states: The book's author is so historically significant that any of his or her written works may be considered notable.[6]
The author received Zaire's highest order of decoration, and was internationally known as a humanitarian. His work has been the basis for many efforts to recognize the Pygmie's plight. Even the San Diego Zoo has an Ituri Forest exhibit that features Pygmy culture, largely based on Pygmy Kitabu and the movie based on Pygmy Kitabu, Pygmies. Nutsheller ( talk) 17:39, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
Prior to this article Pygmy Kitabu was referenced in Yahoo Answers, on a prior Wikipedia article as a reference, and in Websters Online dictionary. It is also discussed and referenced in the textbook A Modern Theory of Language Evolution by Carl Becker. Nutsheller ( talk) 20:43, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
Both the book and the movie are part of the syllabus of at least one university, San Jose State University, Fall 2008 -- Pristine Religions, Animism, and Ritual. Nutsheller ( talk) 23:29, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
It is listed on the syllabus of a sociology course at the university of Hawaii. Nutsheller ( talk) 23:58, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

There is an abusive use of tags on this website. References are tagged for verification when the external reference explicitly supports the statement referenced. This has been apparently done by a single user for personal reasons unrelated to the article. A request for third opinion has been requested. Nutsheller ( talk) 20:15, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
This article was listed at WP:Third Opinion for an outside point of view. As the article has already been brought to AfD, the WP:3O request has been superceded. Jim Miller ( talk) 20:45, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
A small consensus on AfD appears to support that this article be merged into the author's main article. This has been done. A redirect to that article is entered here. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Nutsheller ( talk • contribs) 14:22, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
